Local charity launches Development Board with eight founding members

Local charity, OneRichmond, has launched a new Development Board, which is made up of inspiring local leaders who are keen to create positive change in their community.
OneRichmond is a place-based giving charity that encourages Richmond residents to support their local community by championing local causes.
It works to tackle social isolation in the borough, and is calling upon passionate local business owners, professionals, and philanthropists to make this happen.
The charity was set up by the Richmond Foundation, Hampton Fund, and City Bridge Foundation to engage local people and address increasing levels of need in our borough.
The new Development Board met for the first time on Thursday, setting an ambitious fundraising target of £250,000, which will be used to support local grassroots charities.
They will now be working with OneRichmond to deliver on this target and support its shared vision of a Richmond community for all.
One of the Board's founding members, Ritu Muhandru, said: "I am a very proud and grateful Richmond resident and embrace the opportunity to do something to support and help fellow residents."
Throughout the coming year, the Development Board will partake in key events, develop exciting new fundraising initiatives, and work with local charities to provide much needed support to vulnerable people and neglected causes within the borough.
One of these key events will be a 'Dragon's Den' style fundraiser in Spring 2026, giving charities the opportunity to pitch in front of key funders and demonstrate the importance of their work.
OneRichmond is currently inviting local individuals to join their mission towards a fairer and more resilient Richmond.
